Hear Ben Gibbard’s song for Ichiro Suziki

After hearing Ichiro Suziki was traded to the Yankees Monday, Bremerton native and baseball fan Ben Gibbard released a song he wrote for the center fielder.

(Gibbard, in case you’re not up on who’s who in the music scene, is the frontman of Death Cab for Cutie and The Postal Service. He was also briefly married to this famous woman, in case you still don’t recognize the name.)

And yes, he’s a big baseball fan. Here’s “Ichiro’s Theme,” released via Gibbard’s Twitter feed with this message: “I wrote this song a few years ago. Today seems like the best day to share it with you. Thank you so much, Ichiro.”
